    318is S52 track toy night shoot and Watkins Glen Vid :)

    Did some long exposure shots the other night. Canon 40mm Prime.
    (Hi-Res on Imgur)

    Also added a video from a summer HPDE at Watkins Glen and PCA Autocross.

        Nice pictures! Good to see an e30 on track at WGI, hopefully we'll have ours up there next year.

        I would be shocked if it didn't fuel start in the Carousel and the toe of the boot

            I figure. 325i's seem to suffer less from it though. My 318is (s52 swapped too) would start to starve at anything less than 1/2 a tank. Super annoying... I really need to allocate some time for my own car at some point to install a surge tank

              Yup on my last session had some fuel starvation. Need to keep that tank topped off I suppose.

                  Super photos. I really enjoy long exposure, painting with light things like this.

                    Yeh thats what I've been doing... just gets annoying to have to worry about it every time. Go through about half a tank within 2 sessions or so.

                          Your car is one I always compare mine to, and use as a goal for what it could one day be. Love it man.

                            Yup, just did some simple light painting with my Iphone LED and left it open for 1-2 minutes.
